New Game of Thrones “Stormborn” Images Hint at Questions of Trust
Game of Thrones‘ season 7 premiere, “Dragonstone,” set the table in a major way. It gave us Arya’s quest towards King’s Landing, stopping off at House Frey to put an end to Walder Frey’s entire lineage. It supplied some major tension within King’s Landing between Cersei and Jaime, as well as some tart repartee between Jon Snow and Sansa in Winterfell over how best to prepare for the coming war.
Game of Thrones Showrunners’ Next Series at HBO is Confederate
While we prepare for the end of Game of Thrones, we’ve braced ourselves with the comforting news that there are up to four potential Game of Thrones spinoffs/prequels being written. This thought has been like a summer day in High Garden while we face down the dead of winter that is the show’s end.
While GOT may likely live on in some version, what we’ve also known is that series’ showrunners Dan Weiss and David Benioff are likely going to move on from any day-to-day decision making with whatever GOT-related shows come next.
Game of Thrones Season 7 Premiere was Shown in a Moscow Subway Station
Russia has a bit of a recent tortured history with Game of Thrones. On the one hand, clearly people love the show over there. How do we know? Some 350 Muscovites showed up at the Mayakovskaya subway station in central Moscow to watch the premiere, the metro press service reported. It’s part of the city’s Night in Moscow’s Metro cultural project, with several events each year. Amediateka, Game of Thrones’ distributor in Russia,
Ed Sheeran Cameo Continues Game of Thrones History of Incorporating Real Life Musicians Into the Show
The radio isn’t the only place you’ll find Ed Sheeran these days, even as his song “Shape of You” continues to top charts and further establish itself as the song of summer. Sheeran found himself at the heart of another summer sensation when he appeared in the season 7 premiere of Game of Thrones last night. Sheeran, playing a Lannister soldier, shared the screen with fan-favorite Arya Stark (played by Maisie Williams,
Six Crucial Questions Raised by Game of Thrones‘ Season 7 Premiere
At long last, we are hurtling into the final episodes of Game of Thrones. Though fans could hardly expect answers to the heftier questions posed in Season 6 (and earlier seasons) to be answered in the first episode of Season 7, we were gifted with an intense look at the new world order that exists in the aftermath of the Season 6 finale. With new information, however, comes a hoard of new questions.
Jodie Whittaker Cast as the First Female Doctor Who
The 13th Doctor is in, and after 54 years and 12 previous iterations, your doctor is a woman. Broadchurch’s Jodie Whittaker will be stepping in for current Doctor Peter Capaldi after he leaves the show after this year’s Christmas special, giving Doctor Who a thrilling new reason to re-engage with the show next season.
BBC made the announcement yesterday, with this accompanying teaser of a hooded figure walking through a forest towards the TARDIS.
Game of Thrones Recap: Season Seven Premiere “Dragonstone”
When Game of Thrones season seven premiere began, we saw a familiar, craggy face staring at us; the raping, disgusting visage of Walder Frey. This was odd, considering the last time we saw this ripe lump of lechery, he was being crossed off Arya Stark’s revenge list with a knife across his throat, the youngest Stark smiling down at him, fulfilling the promise she made to herself that her face would be the last he’d ever see.
How Might Someone Kill Daenerys’ Dragons?
It has been a long and winding road – or rather flight – for Daenerys’ dragons since we saw them hatch in the finale of Game of Thrones’ first season. Powerful from the first, the dragons’ growth since then has only reinforced perceptions of Dany’s invincibility. Audiences have seen them wreak massive damage with only a single burst of flame. As Dany draws steadily nearer her goal of conquering Westeros,
Intriguing Game of Thrones Fan Theories to Digest Before Sunday’s Season 7 Premiere
What exactly do Game of Thrones fans do during the notoriously long waits between seasons? If the overwhelming number of ideas on the internet right now is any indication, they spend ample time rereading the books and developing theories. With the show returning this weekend, fans might just see some of these theories become fact.
Though never a likable character, Cersei’s use of wildfire to massacre hundreds at the Sept of Baelor in last season’s finale left her with more enemies than ever.
Your Game of Thrones Season Seven Primer
It’s not always easy (okay it’s hard) keeping track of where we left off in Game of Thrones when a new season premieres. A LOT happens on this show, and with how sprawling Westeros is, and how many families, factions and rogue elements are vying for power, it helps to have a guide remind you of where you’ve been and what you’ve seen.

What do These Photos From Game of Thrones Season Seven Premiere Tell us?
With Game of Thrones' season seven premiere now just a few days away, HBO has dropped a few photos from the episode to give viewers a taste (and to likely throw us off the scent) of what’s to come. You won't be seeing any more trailers or new photos until Sunday night's premiere, which is titled “Dragonstone.”
The images include everyone's favorite diminutive bad ass, Lyanna Mormont, no doubt speaking up and speaking her mind,
Check out the First Trailer for Amazon’s Superhero Comedy The Tick
There are plenty of serious superhero shows on TV (Marvel’s got a whole slate of them on Netflix, for example), so perhaps what the world needs now is a Deadpool-like superhero on TV, one who doesn’t take himself, or the superhero world, too seriously. With that in mind, we present you with the first trailer for Amazon’s The Tick.
The conceit is fun; what if the super strong,
Watch Kit Harington’s Surprising Game Of Thrones Audition Tape
While you know that Kit Harington eventually landed the plum role of Jon Snow on HBO’s Game of Thrones, you likely weren’t aware that Harington actually auditioned for several different parts. For the first time, thanks to showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss, you can now watch those screen tests. They shared them with Jimmy Kimmel, so you can be assured these are real, and not an elaborate, hilarious skit.
New The Grand Tour Trailer Shows Moments Right Before Richard Hammond’s Near Fatal Crash
Amazon’s series The Grand Tour stars former Top Gear stars Richard Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson and James May follows the three funny, often argumentative buddies as they geek out about cars, have Mike Skinner, a NASCAR driver they call “The American” test drive cars, and generally gleefully misbehave, have fun with cars, and make fun of each other.
However last season things got real scary real fast. Hammond was involved in a terrifying crash when he lost control of his car in Switzerland and it burst into flames.
Check out This Game of Thrones Fan’s Animated Spinoff Teaser
The premiere of the second-to-last season of Game of Thrones this Sunday will undoubtedly be a bittersweet occasion. While ending the year-long wait for the show’s return, the countdown of the final thirteen episodes of the series also begins. Given the grand-scale success of the show – both critically and in the eyes of audiences – it’s no wonder the possibility of several spin-off series is being seriously discussed.
Extreme Contrast: DP Shoots FX’s Fargo and Legion
Calgary-based cinematographer Craig Wrobleski happened to be in the right place at the right time four years ago when the makers of FX series Fargo came calling with an urgent request. "At the end of their first season, it was an intense schedule and they needed someone to help shoot some second unit stuff in Alberta," he says. "I live south of Calgary and had just finished another show, so they asked me to do some establishing shots."
Dressing the The Handmaid’s Tale From Covered Head to Booted Toe
Costume designer Ane Crabtree exerted plenty of impact on pop couture through her mob suits featured in The Sopranos and the robot cowboy outfits she made for Westworld. But nothing prepared the cheerful 52-year old wardrobe auteur for The Handmaid’s Tale. In the Hulu series based on Margaret Atwood’s 1985 novel, she dressed Elizabeth Moss' slave woman Offred and other female characters forced to bear children in the near-future fascist state of "Elysium."
Stunt Performer Annabel Wood is a Real Life Wonder Woman
When she hears the word action, Annabel Wood’s job is to take the command literally. She very often makes her living dying. All in all, Wood has died more times than she can count – and she keeps coming back from more. She’s a stunt performer, and one of the best in the business. She leaps off cliffs and castle walls, dodges speeding cars and motorcycles, and, dons prosthetics to become an ice zombie and charge into a camp prepared to do her worst.
The Hottest New Romance on Game of Thrones was Improvised
Earlier today, we shared this story about Game of Thrones showruners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss discussing the breakneck tempo (including two huge battles) that will make season seven special. In their interview with Entertainment Weekly, Benioff and Weiss also discussed another hot topic; the burgeoning love affair (we hope) between the Wilding Tormund Giantsbane (Kristoffer Hivju) and Brienne of Tarth (Gwendoline Christie) that was ignited last season.
Game of Thrones Showrunners Discuss Epic Scope and Scale of Season 7
HBO has been giving us a lot of really great behind-the-scenes intel on Game of Thrones lately. We've met Ramin Djawadi, the man behind the show's music, we've spent time with the special effects team and learned a bit about how they set fire to people (responsibly!), and we've unpacked the latest trailer for season seven, which hinted at an action-packed, quicker-than-usual pace. As this is the penultimate season of the show and,
